I would love a used Leo Vince or Remus (or anything aftermarket really) if anyone has one they would like to part with.

I have a Remus titanium that will work with a stock header. It had a slight scratch and I just polished it out. I popped the end can off last month to check packing and install a 2nd sound baffle ( from a Staintune pipe). It is still too loud for me so I put the stock can back on. I'm open to offers. If you want to reopen it to remove the internal baffle, you would just drill out 6 rivets remove one screw and reassemble.

I swapped the stock header for a remus header. The stock header shrinks from 42mm to 40mm as it heads back to the muffler while the Remus starts small at 39mm and grows in diameter to 45 (use without the stock pipe gasket). I need to ride it to see if top speed increases, but theoretically, the hot gas expanding in the stock header - going from big to small - would have set up some shock waves (like in a 2 stroke expansion chamber) and without a dyno I will never know if the stock header helped or hindered scavenging from the cylinder - so it will be a seat of the pants dyno conclusion when the roads are clear.

The Leo Vince is slightly louder than stock, but not much different. I swapped to the LV pipe to save some weight and hopefully lose the heat under my left leg. However, after switching I think most of the heat under my leg is coming from the engine itself and the oil reservoir.

I have a Remus on mine as well. I think it is too loud. Is there anything out there that is quieter? I know the SR is said to be quiet, but I can't find a place that sells it.

Scheffelmeier sells it. I guess he sells it 20% less to export customers. But cant guarantee that.

Cant remember if I posted this earlier in this thread or not. I know I meant to ... A comparison between a stock exhaust and the SR Racing number. As you will see, its not dramatically louder than stock. And much quieter than the remus I used to use.

At least on the video I like it better than stock, I might just have to get that upgrade for my X...

I recently bought a Xmoto with a Staintune exhaust, which is annoyingly loud. But I also got the stock exhaust, and have been thinking about reinstalling it. The last few posts would quickly convince me, except that I don't know what I'm doing...

Forgive my total ignorance, but is this a simple bolt on procedure? Is there any remapping necessary, etc?

To replace the stock exhaust to the stock header, you will need an exhaust gasket. All else is simple, although you need to remove the Remus bracket to get the stock bolt back in (at least I did).

I put 2 db reducers in the Remus and still prefer the sound of the stock, but this time I reinstalled the stock can and left the Remus header. Header is slightly shorter and doesn't fit fully into cut outs in stock muffler. I have used a shorten exhaust gasket, clamped and sealed the potential leak points, but will probably need a better solution this summer. To tell which header you have, the stock header shrinks in size from block to muffler inlet and the Remus grows in size.

My current record is 112 MPH on dash which is about 105 true (stock muffler and stock header). In addition to the better designed Remus header, I am doing a PC V, so I may be able to eek out an additional 1 MPH Going up on the front 1t helped me not hit rev limiter in 6th.
